How about

body {
  position: fixed;
}

does that work too?

Worked for me! Thanks.

This works for me as well. Try this first as it's way way simpler than the alternatives.

@mikebarnhardt, that stopped me from being able to scroll through the iframe, but now none of the page scrolls when you move your finger over the iframe.

I don't want the iframe to scroll, but I want the page to scroll.
